Are you building it straight OOB? I enjoy seeing these beasts come together, it is a unique vehicle apart from Humvee's and other traditional MRAPS. I'll be following this, I just finished one not too long ago for a Campaign and have another sitting in the stash waiting for the M1200 conv.

Good luck to you, this is a great kit.

Hey Olivier,

Here is a step-by-step build I did here on Armorama.

M1117 Guardian Step-By-Step



The Trumpeter M1117 Guardian was one of the best kits I've ever built. I had a lot of fun with it. I look forward to seeing your progress.

I've got this one waiting, with Voyager's new Rhino etch set. I'll be watching this with interest.
